[QUOTE="MonkLover, post: 5346443, member: 82105"] This is my first attempt at a build for flavour, as I am going to be starting a new campaign soon and I've had this idea kicking around for a little while. I was trying to creat an Assassin/Monk who uses Ranged Poisoned attacks in the form of darts or shuriken, who also uses power over the shadows to assist in his mobility and taking out his marks. I made it for the Forgotten Realms Setting as that is the Campaign setting I usually play in. I am however not sure how playable it would be, please feel free to pick it apart and suggest changes to make it more optimized from a playable standpoint.
